West Ham 1 Doncaster 1 West Ham Fans Fail Again!

Useless bastards! Don't they understand that it's not enough to pay to get into the game, they have a responsibility to win the game too. They are letting down our wonderfully talented players and our genius of a manager. How else can you explain two consecutive 1-1 draws against shit opposition?

Bloody hell, the fans nearly lost it today! Doncaster's fans were far better in the second half, controlling the game and very nearly scoring a winner. As for our lot, they didn't test the Donny keeper all game. The crowd were hopeless. Not one of them stood up to the plate. Not one of them took responsibility for winning the game. Not one of them displayed the necessary passion, desire or skill to win the game!

What is Allardyce going to do about the Boleyn fans? He has put together a team of ex Bolton players and the Bolton crowd always played their part. Allardyce is using the tactics he knows best - hit it long and hit it hard - and it always worked at Bolton, thanks to the fans, but not at West Ham. Poor Sam is being betrayed by fans who have moaned all season about our tactics, who seem to think that the team should play with skill and swagger against the likes of Watford and Doncaster! Fools! Fools! Fools! Football is attritional. Football is tedious. Football is repetitive. Football isn't about skill, it is about statistics. Get the ball in the box often enough and you will score. Providing the crowd play their part. But our crowd are hopeless! They get bored. They get frustrated. They get anxious. They lose faith. They don't retain the ball. They don't create chances. They can't cross. They can't shoot. They can't perform as a team.

It's time for the crowd to look long and hard at themselves. It's time for the crowd to accept responsibility. It's time for the crowd to up their performance, to give the team something to cheer about!

Because it's looking like we are going to miss out on automatic promotion and if the crowd can't score goals - and how many goals have we scored at home all season? - what chance do we stand over two legs in the play offs?

And it''s because of those fans that, in desperate need of a winner, Allardyce sent on O'Neil and Collins and left Morrison on the bench. How can you ask the best young English player of his generation to perform in front of our fans? What a ludicrous suggestion. The boy was on the bench to see just how terrible our fans are in the hope that - given 90% plus are heterosexual - Ravel may understand that it's not only gays who are a disgrace to humanity!

Congratulations to Reading's fans and to Southampton's fans too. Their fans were brilliant again today. Once again they played with skill, pace, determination and shape. What chance do West Ham and Allardyce stand when up against fans like that exactly? No chance. No chance at all. It's just not fair on Allardyce and the highest paid squad in the division.

spot on, I think its time for the fans to apologise to the team! what the hell are they thinking, going week in week out, paying loads of hard earned money, then acting like complete spineless morons. Them fans are useless!

On my way back from the game now and I can only say that I am well and truly ashamed to say I support a bunch of gutless, clueless arseholes. How any moronic imbecile can come onto this site and accuse the supporters of being responsible for that shower of shit I will know.

Every fan site this week has been full of threads about the fans, Iain dale, west ham online, the org all week "are we the problem", "are we expecting too much", "can we really call ourselves true supporters" what a load of bollox why oh why can't anyone in this world take responsibly for their own actions? Why has it always got to be someone else's fault? We absolutely smashed them for the first 10 mins, had a goal dissalowed, hit the bar and scored and then what do we do, the usual sit back and let them back in, we could've steam rollered them instead we come away lucky to get a point. If we didn't have Faye, Tomkins and green we'd be no where near the top half of the table.

I cannot put into words just how fucking disgusted I am with that performance today and anyone who wants to disagree with me can go and well and truly fuck themselves

I couldn't wait to read your review after the game and you haven't disappointed.

4 points dropped at home against two inferior teams. We should have been cruising at this stage, leaving the Saints and Reading to sort out 2nd place between them. Instead we're looking over our shoulders nervously and anxious players don't always perform that well... which brings to this... why do we underperform at home so often? Is it possible that the atmosphere of high expectations intimidates our own players more than the oppositions?

Oh yeah sorry I forgot how little old me can turn grown me into Jelley. If only I had the same effect on my missus and kids. In 16 years of having a season ticket I cannot recall another game that has sent me home this irate

If you watch the Watford goal back again it actually takes a deflection off of Basildon iron, not Faye. And today Im pretty sure el hadji diouf played a one-two with Fred 149 before playing coppinger in for the equaliser.

Sam only knows one way to play the game. There is no excuse for persisting with the same tactics in our home games when time and time again we fail. How can you set up a team for a home game against the bottom team and play defensively?!!!

And in the second half he brings in defenders in place of attacking players when we actually need to score in order to win the game?!!!

This is not only "not the West Ham way", it is totally pathetic! Why doesn't he just once try out a team at home that can take the game to the opposition? If we can't do that in our home games, even if we do manage to go up we will come straight back!

I am sorry, no excuses this time, Sam has only himself to blame this time! He learned nothing from the game against Watford a few days ago. I am beginning to think he just can't learn!

I was but at that game you had 2 teams scrapping for the same goal, similar players, similar styles, both not good enough. Today's different you couldn't tell who was top of the league and who was bottom and it was nothing other than humiliating in my book

how does the chant go?now you better believe us now you better believe usWe're gonna be shituntil Sam gets the sackuntil Sam gets the sackNow HF it's also time to admit my absolute faith in Paolo's ability was not unfounded

Spot on sav, today's performance was a disgrace. They couldn't get near us in the first 10 mins and that game was just screaming out for us to make the biggest statement possible to Southampton and reading but what do we do instead send them the biggest possible statement with the total opposite impact. We're there for the taking in and no one's got the bottle to step up, if you're a reading or Southampton fan you're well and truly laughing your cock off now. I am dreading reading coming to our upton park as I am hull and boro. The wheels have come off in spectacular fashion and the biggest smoke screen in history is about to be ripped to shreds. We ain't good enough.

From Tom
